One thing I love about Ford Model T and A is that nearly any flammable liquid can be fuel come to think of it even the green push can't stop Model T and A I love them they are the lovable stubborn old neighbour of cars.

Well, looks like you two had a lot of fun there at the Turlock swap meet. Paul, it looked like you were carrying a little prize around with you, so happy with your prize, I'm sure. Can't wait to see the 1931 Model A truck build/restoration, loved the little canvas you got. Thanks for sharing, I hope you and Model T have a blessed Sunday!

[@ModelA]

Thank you brother. God bless!

[@quailstudios]

[@MikeLoveBuns]

Enjoy Ford Model A video! Mike from Missouri

[@vicenzoaircooled3254]

Dang I saw the torque tube coupler I need I need to make it one day

[@bradellis3261]

I've never been to Hershey or Modesto, But Iola Wisconsin is pretty incredible. 2 days just to make it through and not really taking time to search for THAT part.

[@ModelA]

Nice.

[@williamarwood7737]

Glad to see you again! I did call MAFCA and they said the revised Victoria and Town Car information will be done near the end of the year for the Model A Restorations Guide Lines and Restoration Book. Can't wait! The Red Book from Les Andrews is VERY informative. Love it. And your videos.🤗

[@ModelA]

Excellent! Thank you!

[@JefferyHall-ct2tr]

Hi Friends!: Glad you had a good time at the swap meet! Happy you were able to find some goodies for your rides!!

[@ModelA]

Yes! Thank you!

[@RandallSchwed]

Love your videos all is right with the world. Two sweet hearts.🙏

[@jamessoares516]

It was good to see you and model T Sunday afternoon love your page and keep it going

[@ModelA]

Thanks! You too!

[@jamessoares516]

@@ModelA Paul I have a question I ran into a 1931 Ford slat window is there anyway to move the seat back I tried going inside of it and I barely fit and I’m 5’7’’

[@jimhickey2276]

Man, missed it! Best swap meat ever right there!

[@ModelA]

It was!

[@mattpowers3958]

Glad to see you back at it, Paul! Thanks for bringing us along. Looking forward to more Gandalf and of course the pickup.

[@ModelA]

You bet! Thanks Matt.

[@Go4Corvette]

Thanks for the tour.

[@ModelA]

Our pleasure!

[@angelaunger1935]

This is so awesome!

[@jxxmizzzzzle2013]

Hey Paul thank you for all the awesome videos that you make. As a 17 year old with no prior knowledge in restoring Model A’s you are the best when it comes to simplifying information. I just had one quick question. I was looking all over the internet to find exactly what colors the Model A engines were painted and they all said green however mine is like an orangish red and it’s never been restored, do you know why this is?

[@ModelA]

It could be Canadian. The ones assembled in Canada had orange-ish red engines.

[@jxxmizzzzzle2013]

@@ModelA Thank you for the reply Paul! Will there be any other signs indicating it may be Canadian? I noticed the timing gear cover had a D imprinted on it, otherwise everything else seems the same and the color is beautiful.

[@garyaxsom1815]

Great job!

[@charlyo.4621]

Thank you for this video again. It's nice to see how the community works in your country. The model a right at the begining of your video is a cabriolet, isn't it? They are rare.

[@ModelA]

Yes. Not that rare over here. Good catch!

[@thomasba3583]

Hi paul, im working on my 29 and spark is not getting from the distributor to the plug, the coil is good, points are opening and closing, why is it not making the jump to the spark wire.

[@jeffdriver3000]

Growing up in the Sacramento area I remember the radio ads for "Turkeys from Turlock"

[@ModelA]

Oof That's a while ago!

[@patmccarthy5069]

You two look happy at the event like two kids in a candy store! Nice toilet paper rack. Haha

[@ModelA]

I'm still gonna put TP on it and see what she says. hahaaa!!!

[@davidpayton8336]

We had a great time at Turlock. 😊

[@ModelA]

Did we get to meet?

[@davidpayton8336]

@@ModelA No I'm sorry we didn't. I left Saturday at 2pm with my old car buddies from LA and they dropped me off at my home in Bakersfield. I heard from a couple of folks there that starting next year the January Turlock swap meet will only be on Saturday. 🤔

[@douglasnieblas74]

Awesome swap meet. Did Bob sell the Fordor?

[@ModelA]

no

[@theguythatcouldfly]

Welcome back!

[@ModelA]

Thank you!

[@marilynmoore6752]

Hi Paul, was that a rare blindback slant windshield we saw in the video?

[@ModelA]

Yes!! It sold for $3500!!

[@marilynmoore6752]

Someone stoked it then,my husband has seen 2 of these, they were here in Beckley we several years ago, they were from Ohio. He said one of the guys that owned one said he thought only 750 were made.

[@toddbader6104]

Hey Paul,how about doing a show on the overdrives? Mitchell and the different driveshaft models?

[@ModelA]

Like this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHy1eYyirLdqm7c Or like this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqbRZH2LnNNnirc

[@toddbader6104]

@ModelA yeah! Like that! Thanks Paul. Any old school borg Warner video you got?

[@ModelA]

@@toddbader6104 Just the one where I ripped a BW out and threw it in the scrap pile.

[@toddbader6104]

@ModelA not everyone can justify a 5000$ overdrive in their model a.

[@ModelA]

@@toddbader6104 Agreed! Neither can I. Tina accidentally backup up like 6 inches before the BW overdrive had fully disengaged and the planet gears turned to fragments. I spent the $2800 so that my wife could drive the Model A too and not freak out if starting on a hill and afraid of breaking the car. Worth every penny.

[@snarfopotamus3627]

man id love to go to one of these id have problems not buying things aaand id maybe be able to get my fordor working ask two trillion questions to everyone the usual maybe figure out the things i don't understand that's wrong. oh and of course admire the model T's

[@ModelA]

Yes! Self control goes out the window at these swap meets.

[@williamforbes5826]

What is the old saying about mufflers? They never die, they just get exhausted. They claim to have low back pressure...I see holes in their argument. One last thing, always check the grease in your muffler bearings. Okay, I'll shut-a- my face😮

[@carmengianforte2501]

Great video Thanks BTW my last name is spelled GIANFORTE

[@ModelA]

How did I spell it??

[@carmengianforte2501]

GianTforte

[@ModelA]

Oh NO!! I am SO sorry!!! Autocorrect?? I'll fix it for all videos from now on. Very sorry, I would never knowingly disrespewct you like that.

[@ModelA]

I just corrected it on the upcoming video for next weekend. Thank you for pointing out my error. I am sorry, I would never have let that go if I had been more attentive.

[@jamesonpace726]

Yknow, for the 1st 1/3 of this vid, if ya go juuust a bit faster, no one will see anything at all! Yay....

[@ModelA]

Some say I go to slow, you say I go to fast. That must mean it's just right.
